Hi Jan,

I don't think there is a simple answer to your point. But the best way
to get an idea is to give a look at MISRA-C [1]. It's less than 50GBP, I
am hoping Lars will be able to sort it out for you. The purpose of this
work is also to provide the context for the upcoming f2f discussions.

What I am about to write needs to be verified (hopefully we'll find the
answer during the workshop) but my understanding is that even just a few
steps toward compliance are better than nothing.

Cheers,

Stefano
